Design-kettle whose appearance the high price does not fully justify

Shall look you look at the kettle from the product range Coulours Purple Passion of Russel Hobbs & accurate, so a fall immediately two things in mind: The beautiful design and the high price. But can the former alone justify the second?

The kettle has the painted of the product range characteristic purple stainless steel and shiny chrome that makes him look very visually attractive and of high quality and elevates him above the competition from plastic.

Other pluses are the 360 ​​degrees rotatable base and the construction of the cover. This closes namely automatically when the stove is turned off and saves the user therefore a handle. This leads, however, to the fact that the device can only fill by exerting slight pressure on the lid. It therefore requires both hands for this case, which is thus more complex than that of other devices.

However, show up in the processing but several shortcomings, which should not occur in a device of this price range:

- The filling opening of the cooker has failed much too small,
- The built-in water filter can only be removed from the device cumbersome Notwithstanding any other claims of the manufacturer,
- The indication of water level is not clear.

The boil water itself, however, is what both the audio output level and the speed of the process in terms satisfactory.

Conclusion:

Away from its shapely appearance of the kettle works only satisfactory and no better than competing products at half the price. The acquisition can therefore be recommended only to those with a clear conscience, which form is more important than content.
